Thought I would just give an update to this old post. For folks looking for the some OEM looking cup holders and retro emblems for their 70's era to modern Yota then check us out. The holiday season is about to begin and things get CRAZY here. We...

Get K. a torch for her birthday, to go with the pitchfork.

Pictures, or it didn't happen.

So the one on the East coast moved a little. @Land Shark picked this up from me and took it to Fall Crawl at the Cove this past weekend. It road the trails in his 40, then road in my FJ45 race car #4573. It then came back to Richmond with Land...

I got lucky and just happen to be looking in the right place at the right time and bought an oem stamped bezel for the 45. It came off of a 1963 fj40 and had the right patina and character to match The Milk Truck. I think it fits the truck...

City Racer does a nice reproduction rear lock pad! I forget how much it cost but it was definitely less than $200.

Yep, that rubber is integral to the lock mechanism.

Scaling back, enjoying time with Grandies and frequenting the occasional Car Show. I love parking next to the Ferrari's and getting more interest in my 40 series!

The most common non-US Land Cruiser distributor is the 19100-61080, which has the small housing, And there is the later 19100-61180 distributor used in non-US FJ62s. It has the medium housing. I have at least one of each that can be refurbished...

From which engine? How much are you asking? Shipping would be to 87544. Thanks.

Do all three have distributors? I may be interested in one or all.

Heat the yoke freeze the joint and install the caps with finger pressure instead of a press or hammer... Then you can go enjoy your day with energy to spare because you work smarter, not harder.

Refurbished non-US Land Cruiser distributor 19100-61180. Working vacuum advance. New Toyota parts include distributor cap, rotor, distributor shaft O-ring, and mechanical advance weights with sleeves. Converted to Toyota electronic ignition using...

When I installed the Sniper, I installed the FJ60 dizzy that I had refurbished. The distributer is actually the original unit that came with the '86 2F I purchased and had rebuilt back in 2015. Note, the 'Ignition Timing Degrees' isn't...

I've got one in very good shape, but it's missing the primary slow jet. Otherwise it's complete.

Have you found an igniter yet? There are at least 3 or 4 igniters from other Toyota models that will work perfectly well with your ignition system. In some cases a jumper is required due to the distance between the igniter and the distributor...

Here is status on the other... First real stop was in Moab (Arches NP) - and I took the Lincoln highway back from SAS so I can mark that on the map. So far, made it all the way to Stockton on the original Lincoln Highway route with it and the...

Looks like you've got quite a bit lined up for today. And don't forget, you've got a distributor on the way for Kermit.

Spike a couple pieces of 2x6 one 8 and one 10. Pull up to the pump, stick the shim in front of the rear passenger wheel, pull up on the blocks, stop. Gas will pump in that aux a lot faster - 3 pieces is even better.

Below are the JPG files of an excel spread sheet I saved years ago from MUD. I can't remember who put this together, but they get the credit for it, not me. Note, I do have the Excel file but can't upload to MUD. I want to say this came...

Still driving it around... and especially longer distance... all the way across AZ to the San Juans in CO. Even towing a pop-up camper now! Checked off a few bucket list trails... Lots of updates on the truck... lots of catching up coming...

I just had these exact symptoms on a 76’ FJ40, was missing the pump spring stopper. Also check the primary slow jet is sized correctly.

Bunch of sediment under the ACC spring. Boot is in great shape so idk. Got it out. And noticed last time I screwed around in there adjusting the float I did a shoddy job. Fuel level just a smidge higher now. Straightened it out. Started it up...

August 6, 2026 Ouray, CO The official baton-briefcase handoffs… both made it to Solid Axle Summit 10! The OG Briefcase made its was to SAS10 with @John McVicker and handed-off to @matzell making it’s way safely to the East Coast riding...

The other case rode in the front pass seat of my 40 back to VA from SAS10. Once the weather cools I have plans for a tour of VA and some other club visits. We ran US 50 from Montrose to about Witchita then took the HWY on our 2000 miles trip home.
